INTRODUCTION. 

In connection with studies of the utilization of rivers the United 
States Geological Survey has from time to time made surveys and 
profiles of some of the more important streams of the comitry and 
published the results in its series of water-supply papers. In some 
parts of the country these surveys were made chiefly to determine 
the location of power sites on streams adapted to the development of 
power by low or medium heads of 20 to 100 feet; in others the pur- 
pose of the surveys was more closely related to the possibility of stor- 
ing water at certain points and diverting it for use in irrigation. 

The earlier surveys, such as those of Green River above FonteneUe, 
Wyo., made in 1909 (Pis. I-V) were of a reconnaissance type and as a 
rule show no contours along the banks. The later surveys are typi- 
fied by that of the Gila in the vicinity of Cliff and Bedrock, N. Mex., 
made in 1915 (Pis. XLI-XLIII) and show conditions in much greater 
detail. These later surveys were made by means of plane table and 
stadia. Elevations are based on heights derived from primary or 
precise levels of the United States Geological Survey. The maps are 
made in the field and show not only the outlines of river banks, the 
islands, the positions of rapids, falls, shoals, and existing dams, and 
the crossings of all ferries and roads, but the contours of banks to an 
elevation high enough to indicate the possibility of using the stream. 

SURVEYS IN THE COLORADO RIVER BASIN. 

The results of surveys in the Colorado River basin here presented 
include some of the earliest as well as some of the latest river surveys. 
The stream-s to which these surveys relate are fully described in 
Water-Supply Paper 395 (Colorado River and its utilization, by E. C. 
La Rue), and the plates herewith should be studied in connection 
with that report.

6 PEOFILE SUKVEYS IN COLORADO RIVER BASIN. 

Studies on the headwaters are represented by 21 plates (I-XXI) 
showing plans and profiles of the Green and its tributaries above the 
junction with the Grand, studies on the Grand by 16 plates (XXII- 
XXXVII) showing plans and profiles above the junction with the 
Green and 3 plates (XXXVIII-XL) showing plans and profiles 
along the Gunnison. The surveys of the Green below Gunnison 
Butte, Utah (Pis. XIII-XXD. were made by the United States 
Reclamation Service and are- published through the cooperation of 
that bureau. The only work on tributaries below the junction of the 
Grand and Green is represented by the profiles of the Gila in the 
vicinity of Cliff and Redrock, N. Mex. (Pis. XLI-XLIII).
